What Steam players say

Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.

✦ AI summary

Of Guards And Thieves is a 2D stealth shooter with interesting class variety and map design that players found enjoyable in concept, but the game has suffered from a severe and apparently irreversible decline in its player population. Multiple reviewers report being unable to find matches or join lobbies due to how few players remain active, making the game essentially unplayable despite its solid core mechanics and ideas.
